They may have gotten a controversial start, but Victoria Fuller and Greg Grippo are still going strong.
Bachelor Nation met Fuller during Peter Weber’s season of The Bachelor, which aired in 2020. After her relationship with the pilot didn’t work out, she was linked to season 19 Bachelor Chris Soules. The twosome split in fall 2020 after spending time together amid the coronavirus lockdown.
“I still talk to him all the time. I think he’s amazing. We are a lot alike, but I just want to focus on myself right now,” she said on the “Viall Files” podcast in September 2020. “I’m not a farmer, but I know a lot about f—king corn now.”
Grippo, for his part, was introduced to fans on Katie Thurston’s season of The Bachelorette, which aired in summer 2021. He quit the series amid a disagreement with the lead after their hometown date.
“I hate watching that back … That hometown [date] made me really upset,” he said during his own interview with Nick Viall in August 2021. “I was so eager to try to get on the same page as her, but it didn’t come off that way. I came off angry. … It was very immature for me and I never want people to try and justify how I acted. We can’t normalize that behavior. … I was pretty ashamed of it all.”
The New Jersey native went on to date Clémence Lopez for several months as Fuller decided to look for The One in Mexico on Bachelor in Paradise. While Grippo and Lopez quietly split, the Virginia Beach native got engaged to Johnny DePhillipo on the beach.
Things changed shortly after the series wrapped, however. In October 2022, Fuller was spotted with Grippo in Italy. Fans caught the pair together on two separate outings, sparking dating speculation.
Rumors were fueled when Grippo commented – and deleted — a flirty remark on Fuller’s Instagram.
“Go on and put on that dress that all the bad boys like????,” she wrote alongside a pic of herself set to Zach Bryan‘s “Oklahoma Smokeshow.”
Grippo responded, “Good girl.”
Viall, who is friends with Grippo (while Fuller is close with the season 21 Bachelor’s girlfriend, Natalie Joy), subsequently confirmed their relationship via TikTok video of Fuller kissing Grippo on the cheek.

According to Fuller, she and DePhillipo split within three weeks of leaving the show.
”There was a possibility for us to potentially work toward something. Breakups are confusing, right? I mean we all know that. I’d be crazy to say that I cut off communication completely,” she later explained to Us. “We ended our engagement three weeks after and then shortly after that we were completely done.”

“We know. We’re not delusional, it’s not the best way to start a relationship,” Grippo told Viall. “And that was hard. … Honestly, it was weird hiding out.”

During the reunion, DePhillipo accused Fuller of cheating with Grippo — which she repeatedly denied.
“It sucked, for sure. It just kind of made me believe that anything she said didn’t hold weight anymore, and I had my suspicions and I kind of thought that there was always something going on. And then it just makes you think, ‘When did it start?’ It’s a weird feeling,” DePhillipo told Us at the time. “I was not there at the party. I just know everything kind of changed after that day.”
Fuller, meanwhile, gushed to Us about how supportive Grippo was during the ordeal.
“Greg and I have very similar values and so we are just figuring it out right now. But we know what we want at the end of the day, and we’ll see what happens. He’s an amazing man. He truly is. He’s been nothing but uplifting and encouraging through this whole experience. And that’s the type of partner that I want. Somebody who makes me feel good and makes me a better person,” she said. “I think Greg might move to Nashville for me. We’ll see. I own a house, so I’m not going anywhere. … It was the sweetest thing ever [for him to join me on stage at the reunion]. He didn’t ask for anything. He just wanted to be there to support me, and I couldn’t ask for a better boyfriend.”

The twosome spent Thanksgiving together, sharing selfies via Instagram Stories on November 24. That same day, Grippo addressed the backlash for the first time.
“Send all the hate that you desire my way, but please leave my mother and [family] out of this,” he wrote via Instagram. “Enjoy your Thanksgiving.”

During their first joint interview together, Grippo confirmed he was “head over heels” in love with Fuller and hinted they were already planning their future together.
“She’s my person,” he told Viall. “I haven’t felt this — content is the wrong word because that just seems boring. But I think there’s a certain, like, I think beauty with being content with someone. Being able to just, like, sit in a room with someone for a week — we can just be in the same room for, I think days on end, and really not get sick of one another. And we’re growing day by day. And I see it going [the marriage] route. I want that. And I know that that’s important to her. And I want to be able to take that step with her.”
